KNOCKED LOOSE LYRICS

1. Belleville

Make me feel
I need you to make me feel

Grasping towards the sun
To reach the light of day
I've fallen in the dark
Afraid I'll have to stay

And now I'm faced with
Ultimate despair
I need you to make me feel
To make me fucking care
I'm growing numb
I'm growing numb

Eroded soul
A twisted knife
Weathered by
The pain of life
Overthink
And doubt it all
I've lost my wings
Afraid to fall

And every day
I'm growing numb
I can't
I'm growing numb
Can't feel
I'm growing numb
I can't feel a thing
The heavens
Cry tears of fire
The heavens
Have denied my way

If this is the end
Then take from me what you will
A hollow vessel
With no blood left to spill

I will hide from the spotlight
I will stay in the dark
Pain cannot finish
If pain never starts

Pain cannot finish
If pain never starts

Make me feel
I need you to make me feel
Make me feel

2. Trapped In The Grasp Of A Memory

Life still happens when I close my eyes
How dare it leave me behind

The pressure has ran its course
I don't think I can take this
The pressure has ran its course
I don't think I can take this anymore

I plucked the petals from all my roses
Leaving a pile of stems
I drain the beauty that's left in this world
Leaving myself condemned

All the trees look the same
Leaves fall and expose the frame

I am trapped in the grasp
Of a memory
It crawls like water through the veins of the weak
Memory
Kept awake by the grinding of teeth

Trapped in the grasp of a memory

Peel back the skin
Everything dissolves inside
I cannot adjust
Alone in a room full of eyes
Nothing's built to last through this weather
I try so hard but nothing works
Put me back together
Resurrect
Put me back together
Resurrect
Put me back together
Back

Thorn in my side

(Life still happens when I close my eyes
How dare it)
Leave me behind

3. A Serpent's Touch

[feat. Emma Bolster]

If I was different maybe I'd forgive you
But I'm not so my feelings stay the same
I hope you noticed that I tried to keep up
Every time that you decided to change

I bleed out
All you ever did was tear me down
I bleed out
I hope you notice that I'm not around
I bleed out

The time I spent
Cannot be repaid
I was by your side
(Empty my remains)
Extinguish all connection
Cut the fucking cord
I am by your side
No more

Now be still
I'm the judge
Poisoned by
A serpent's touch

This burden weighs heavy
On shoulders littered with dejection

[Emma Boster:]
I watched the venom
Overcome your spirit
Jealousy holds you now
Distorting your appearance
Bleed out

I watched the venom overcome
Poisoned by a serpent's touch

4. By The Grave

By the grave I saw you weep
Satisfaction sinks
There's closure in the hole you dug
It's barely out of reach

You buried me too deep
But I found the strength to finally leave
So bury me, forget it all
Forget it all

My skeleton lay dormant
In the bottom of your heart
It could not replace regret
We will never be

A part of me is always with you
With you

With you

I fall victim to your hand
I have broken the laws of God
I am stuck inside your head
And I hope it fucking kills you
(That I'm gone)
By the grave

And things will never be the same
This will never fucking end
Bury me, forget it all

5. In The Walls

Selfish lies
I'll keep you

Oh, I see you when I sleep
You live inside a dream
In that world I'm someone different
Someone I could never be

Mixed up in a violent wind
You were thrown to the wolves
From my hands you start to slip
I did everything I could

Laid flat onto the earth
Everything decays
It was just you, me, and her
All of our suffering fades
I will hold on to that memory
Until your skin turns grey
I will keep you in my walls
Holding on until you slip away
(Slip away, slip away, slip away, slip away)

Hide you in my walls
I'll hide you in my walls

"This brutal killing took place while the family was gathered at home on a Sunday afternoon. The day of the crime, the father went to the trunk of his car, retrieved the rifle, and shot his wife as she was cleaning up the kitchen after lunch. When his ten-year-old son came to investigate the commotion, the father shot him, too. His six-year-old daughter had the good sense to hide in the bathroom, but reports suggest he lured her out by telling her it was just a game. The girl was found shot once in the chest from point-blank range. The mother, who he shot in the stomach, was pregnant at the time. Police arriving on scene after neighbors called 911 found the father in his car listening to the radio"

6. Guided By The Moon

Guided by the moon
I hope you find your way
From here you go alone
In hell I will remain
Waiting to see you again

I'm surrounded by your echo
An episode of throes
Every thorn I lay beside you
An extension of the rose
In the bloom of agony
I grip tight to feel the pain
With all the blood I draw
Leaving hand prints of your name

Guided by the moon
I hope you find your way
Led by the hand with fingers coiled
No evil left to fray
I watched you cling to life
A strength I never knew
I don't know how to feel
This is a different shade of blue

I was visited by death again
An angel of the dark
Come to take you home
In the shape, in the shape of a shattered heart
Shot out of the sky
Buried underground
I have a bone to pick with death
He still follows me around
Fuck

Shot out of the sky
Buried underground
I have a bone to pick with death
He still follows me around

7. Mistakes Like Fractures

The light is stopped by the tree line
And I am chained to the ground
I see the horns in the tall grass
They still follow me around

Mistakes like fractures
Hiding underneath the skin
Mistakes like fractures
Buried underneath the weight of sin

I will atone
For the things I've done here
And God only knows
That it's all stuck in my head
God fell silent
When I cried out
I cry out

I cry out for an ending
An escape that is overdue
Faced with the final judgment
No hand to pull me through

Mistakes like fractures
Hiding underneath the skin
Mistakes like fractures
Buried under all my sin

I followed the rabbit
And I found my fucking ending

I see the horns
They follow me down
God fell silent
When I cried out

8. Forget Your Name

[feat. Keith Buckley]

Forget your name
Sever the tie that binds
Bonded by blood
Tainted soul, leave me behind

Whispers echo within me
Begging to remove the stain
Only the blood that fuels us
Is what keeps you and I the same

Leave me behind

Distance is the only way
I can't hang on the words that convince me to stay
Anything to separate
I run from the life that connects us by fate

You hide
Behind an oath that was written in blood
Retreat
Back into the shell you use to cover up
Cover up

[Keith Buckley:]
I dropped the dead weight into the shallows
I walked the turncoat up to the gallows
I tore the cancer out, your image faded
Brother in arms, amputated

No love lost
Forget your name
No love lost
Forget your name

I am leaving you there in the flames
A dead flower at an unmarked grave
You are a traitor, we are not the same
I will forget your name

9. Road 23

"You'll never know the fear of losing someone like you when you're someone like me"

Stop
Wait
Everything will change
Stop
Wait
Everything will
Everything will change
Change
Oh

I feel this growing weight
Fall on me like a tidal wave
Pain recedes every day
I won't let this die in vain

The stages of grief
I've lost my will
My will to believe there's anything
Left for me
The angels
Took your wings
I won't let you
Die in vain

Every time that I fall asleep
I'm reminded of our history
And I would rather spend my time in hell
Than a life chained to misery

Everything will change
Everything will change

10. And Still I Wander South

I spent so much time focused on the difference
Eclipsed by the shadows of my past
Nothing will sustain
Nothing is built to last
(Nothing is built to last)

There's a hole in the dark
Where the waters rest
No waves in a grave
In a grave unkept
As above so below
Still stuck inside this hole
My mouth is a drain
Where no water flows

A jaded infatuation
Nothing more
I need lightning to strike in the same place twice
I cast out a prayer for wings
Anything to remove this vice (Remove this vice)

Trapped in my head
Where the waters rest

I've spent so much of my life
Trying to get out
And still I wander south

11. Denied by Fate

Betrayed by the promise of death
You pulled me back from my final breath

I thought I was finished
My knees to the floor
The hands of time
Have pulled me back for more

Every time you show your face
Everything falls out of place
I run towards the light in search for escape
I am rejected at Heaven's gate

Betrayed by the promise of death
Betrayed by the promise of death
Go

I must fall
Lose it all
Cast aside
The end denied
The end denied, oh

When the worm was lowered
I took the bait
Exhale life
Remove the weight

My attempt at salvation
Denied by fate
My attempt at salvation
Denied by fate
My attempt at salvation
Denied by, denied by fate

12. Misguided Son

You are never coming back

I watch loyalty withdraw
Remove all connection
No pulse remains intact
I feel we lost direction
When you stabbed me in the back

Be quiet now
Misguided son
I am justice personified
And all the lies that burn your tongue
Will start a fire
From the inside

I followed in your footsteps
Until you covered your tracks
Nothing is the way it seems
You are never coming back

Compassion revoked
With every twist
Of the knife that you stabbed me with

Be quiet now
Misguided son

I can't be better if I pull myself down with you
I can't be better if I pull myself down with you
Down with you

Justice found its way
Misguided son
Down with you

I followed in your footsteps
A truth I can't accept
Your punishment is existence
A greater pain than death

I would rather die than be like you
